The product of the oxidation of a primary alcohol is a carboxylic acid.

reducing a carboxylic acid directly forms an aldehyde, but further reduction forms a primary alcohol reducing a ketone forms a secondary alcohol oxidation reverses these processes primary alcohol -> aldehyde -> carboxylic acid secondary alcohol -> ketone
Cyclohexanone can be oxidized to adipic acid.
Yes. Phenol can be oxidized by hydrogen peroxide to form ortho and para benzenediol with the by product being water. Chromic acid can also oxidize phenol into quinones.
Oxidation of a primary alcohol results in an Aldahyde, 2 molecules of primary alcohol oxidized results in an ether, oxidization of a secondary alcohol end product is a ketone.

ketone
Camphor is a ketone.It is the oxidation product of borneol, which is a secondary alcohol. Primary alcohols when they are oxidized can either produce carboxylic acids or aldehydes. However, since borneol is secondary, it cannot be oxidized to produce an aldehyde or carboxylic acid.Secondary alcohols, on the other hand, will produce ketones. Since borneol is a secondary alcohol, it cannot be oxidized to make an aldehyde which means that camphor must be a ketone.Here is a link to the reaction that I'm talking about:http://img41.imageshack.us/i/primaryohoxidat2.png/Hope that answers your question.
Gluconic acid is formed when the aldehyde end of glucose is oxidized.

hexanol
Water and carbon dioxide.
well,a tertiary aolcohol means that it has to be bonded to 3 bonds, which means it cant bond with anything else so no oxygen can bond to it
Mild oxidation of a secondary alcohol will produce a ketone; strong oxidation, such as burning, can produce carbon dioxide and water.
